The Best DIY STEM Tutorials and Projects
OVERVIEW
Hello, young scientists! Are you ready to embark on an exciting journey filled with creativity, learning, and fun? Today, we’re going to build a DIY Sailing Car! Yes, you read that right! We’re going to combine the power of wind, much like a sailboat, with the mobility of a car. This STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) project will help you understand the principles of wind power, friction, and basic mechanics. But most importantly, it will show you how awesome it is to bring your ideas to life!
